In the early morning, the pale mist surged and filled the entire wilderness.
A green bear beast ran in the mist. Its hands and feet touched the ground. It ran like thunder, and its speed was far faster than that of a wild horse.
Luo Fu and Shirley sat on the back of the green bear beast, looking at the surrounding scenery. As the sun slowly rose, the hazy white mist slowly dissipated, and the vast wilderness slowly unfolded in front of their eyes.
Last night, although he slept crowded in a simple shelter, Rolf slept quite soundly while holding the fragrant and soft Shirley.
If it weren't for the Beaver family next door, who got up early in the morning to work as "lumberjacks", he would probably have to sleep for a while.
Luofu looked at a map of the Forbidden Forest, suddenly frowned and said: "We need to change direction and go to the volcano."
Shirley heard this and asked doubtfully: "Aren't you going to find Furong?"
The original plan of the two of them was to first find Fleur, who was closer, and then take her to the volcano. Hermione was near the volcano, and the four of them just happened to get the dragon crystal together and complete the first event of the competition.
But Luofu suddenly changed his mind.
"I just used magic to detect the location of Galleons on Fleur's body." Luo Fu explained:
"She is starting to move towards the east. The target is probably the volcano. We can just go there directly."
Shirley nodded. Since Fleur was going to the volcano, they didn't have to take a long way to pick her up.
Luofu suddenly pulled the rope tied to the green bear beast and ordered: "Start eastward!"
Green Bear Beast stopped in a hurry, scratched several ravines on the ground with its claws and feet, then turned around and ran eastward.

After breakfast, the Quidditch field was once again filled with students.
Yesterday's game made them excited and in high spirits. Even at night, a group of students sneaked out of the dormitory and wanted to come to the stadium to continue watching.
However, the professors had anticipated this kind of thing and had guarded the door in advance. They caught many students wandering at night and deducted a large number of college points.
Everyone sat on the chairs and whispered to each other. They all wanted to know how many warriors were left after the night.
"After a day and night of competition, four warriors have been eliminated so far!"
Host Ludo Bagman's voice was magically amplified and echoed throughout the Quidditch field.
"Coincidentally, these four students are all Beauxbatons warriors."
Many students burst into laughter, and Madame Maxime, who was sitting on the referee's bench, also grimaced, looking very unhappy.
That's right, only four warriors have been eliminated so far, and they are all Beauxbatons wizards:
One of the students encountered Durmstrang's Poliarco, Lucas, and Kuhn and was forced to use a distress bomb.
There were also three students who were looking for ghost grass and got involved in the battle between Rolf and the mud fish dragon. They were hit by the mud fish dragon's mud, unable to move their bodies, and were eventually forced to leave.
Four out of five, while no Warriors from other schools have withdrawn, which makes Maxim very embarrassed.
"Fleur Delacour is now the only one left in Beauxbatons." Ludo looked at the magic curtain and said loudly:
She was lost in the cave all day yesterday, and found the copper dragon in the middle of the night and obtained the golden egg. "
"She seems a little sleep deprived now, but she still left the cave early and seems to be preparing to head to the volcano."
"Although Beauxbatons is miserable, the situation of other schools is not good either." Ludo paused and continued:
"Polyarco and Lucas from Durmstrang encountered Scamander yesterday and were seriously injured and lost the ability to move. They don't have emergency bombs yet, so they can only survive in the dangerous Forbidden Forest.
Kun, who was not injured, had abandoned them and went off to find the golden eggs alone. "
After hearing Ludo's words, Karkaroff's face looked as ugly as Maxim's.
Yesterday, Dumbledore said that the warriors of Hogwarts would not abandon their injured classmates, and he also believed that the students of Durmstrang would not do the same. Unexpectedly, Kuhn turned around and slapped him in the face!
But before Kun left, he released some defensive magic on them both. This was the only good news.
"Krum used the avalanche to trap the White Rabbit Beast, the master of the snow, and got the golden egg from it. He is already approaching the swamp and intends to look for the ghost grass." Ludo said.
Hearing Klum's name, his fans screamed and cheered, and Ludo had to speak louder:
"Harry appeared in the territory of the Romanian horned dragon. He has a firebolt. As long as he lures the horned dragon out of the nest, it shouldn't be a problem to get the golden egg. But seeing as he keeps covering his stomach, did he eat something bad?"
"Ron Weasley is in a terrible situation. He has a broken leg and is trapped on the top of the mountain unable to come down. He seems to be in very bad condition and is at risk of hypothermia..."
Ludo was very worried about Arthur's youngest son, but Arthur had six sons, so it didn't matter even if one of them had an accident, it would also reduce some financial pressure.
"Scamander and Swinton wasted an afternoon yesterday, but they are still far ahead of the other warriors and are heading to the volcano to get the dragon crystal.
If that green bear moves faster, they might run into Granger, who is under the volcano..."
Hermione, who was so hungry that she didn't have much strength, stood at the foot of the volcano and looked into the distance:
A huge mass of ash, slag and charred rock, from which a steep conical mountain rose, towering into the clouds.
It spewed out billowing thick smoke, and the part that rose into the sky meandered eastward. At the same time, a large amount of rolling smoke clouds floated down along the mountain, spreading and covering the entire land.
The air was filled with a strong smell of sulfur, which burned into the lungs when inhaled. Hermione had to use a Soaking Charm on herself.
Although Hermione was very hungry, she still had to climb the mountain. Fortunately, the mountain was not too high. She kept walking and finally approached the top of the mountain.
The girl carefully searched for the dragon crystal. At this moment, a stream of hot, pulsating, viscous magma spewed out from the crater, just like the tortured earth, squeezing out disgusting pustules!
Hermione was shocked. Is the volcano about to erupt?
But the volcano did not erupt. Instead, with a huge roar, a magical creature flew out of the crater:
It has a lizard-like appearance, covered with black and red scales, and has a pair of red eyes that look like magma. It has a row of black spikes on its tail.
Hermione immediately recognized it, it was a lava dragon!
The lava dragon threw the lava on its body to the ground like a wet dog shaking water. There was also a large black stone in its mouth.
Hermione immediately became excited, because that was the dragon crystal that the warriors needed to collect.
As if eating chocolate, the lava dragon chewed up the dragon crystal in one bite and swallowed it into its throat. A large number of crumbs fell to the ground.
Hermione was hesitant about how to get the dragon crystal, but the lava dragon suddenly turned its head and stared at her.
